Seize the Effing Day

Good start to the week…

Yesterday was not a good day for me. The oddest thing happened when I was at the gas station to fuel my car. I started putting the fuel in as usual, and then after maybe 20 seconds or so – it all came back up again!

I’m not entirely sure what happened. Some weird fuel backdraft? It acted like when you try to pour more water into an already full water bottle (only my fuel tank was far from full), and it came back up rather violently.

This meant that I was basically showered in gasoline. My pretty, black winter coat reeks and is possibly ruined. The gloves I was wearing went straight into the bin, cause they were smelling so incredibly badly.

I just hope that I can get the stench out of it. Since it’s a wool coat I can’t just toss it into the washing machine either.

Oh well, fingers crossed that I can get it sorted – cause I don’t really want to shell out for another winter coat.

Oh, no, that sucks! Maybe a dry cleaner can get that out? Might be more expensive, but worth it for an actual good winter coat. Those things are not cheap!

My week started with an extra day off, since we had a statutory holiday on Monday. And I saw my bestest friends on Friday, and I get to see them and my cousin and her babies on the weekend. So my week is good so far!
